In one paragraph
If your Aviva refrigerator is one of the ARBM models in the table below, this page is the map. Not cooling and ice maker faults head the list — our ordering, not a measured frequency — and every class listed routes to the page that diagnoses it.
What you observe on the ARBM line
- Not cooling — condensation or slick shelves inside — Read it on "Aviva ARBM Refrigerator: Not Cooling or Not Freezing".
- Ice maker faults — cubes taste stale or smell of the freezer — "Aviva ARBM Refrigerator: Ice Maker Fault" carries the checking order for it.
- Water on the floor — water appearing in the drawer below a bottom-mount freezer — Covered end to end on "Aviva ARBM Refrigerator: Water Leak".
- A new noise — the sound has changed character rather than got louder — Read it on "Aviva ARBM Refrigerator: Abnormal Noise or Vibration".
The ranking on these models
- Not cooling — Ranked the most common here. There is no denominator behind that: it is what we see on the ARBM line rather than a share of anything counted. The cause is most often a stopped evaporator fan motor.
- Ice maker faults — Ranked second most common here. There is no denominator behind that: it is what we see on the ARBM line rather than a share of anything counted. The cause is most often a clogged or unseated water filter.
- Water on the floor — Third most common of the classes reported on ARBM units — a technician ranking, not a measured share. It usually resolves to a defrost drain blocked with ice or debris.

When this becomes a service call
Owner-fixable on this platform means reachable without tools from the front of the appliance. Past that, and on anything electrical or sealed, it is a service call. A breaker that trips is a call the same day.
